Definitions

  • This application relates to injector holes for injecting air from a gas turbine engine vane into a space between a vane and an adjacent rotating blade.
  • Gas turbine engines typically include a fan delivering air into a compressor section. The air is compressed, and delivered into a combustion section where it is mixed with fuel and ignited. Products of this combustion pass downstream over turbine rotors, driving them to rotate.
  • Components in the turbine section are subject to very high temperatures due to the products of combustion.
  • components within a hot gas flow path are provided with internal cooling air passages.
  • the turbine rotors typically rotate with a plurality of blades, and there may be several stages of a turbine rotor.
  • Static vanes are positioned axially intermediate the plural stages, and include airfoils which serve to direct the products of combustion from one stage to the next. There are seals between the rotating blades and the vanes, and in particular at radially inner platforms.
  • Air is provided from a radially outer chamber into a chamber radially inward of a radially inner platform in the vanes. That air then passes axially into a chamber defined between a vane stage and a rotor stage. The air is driven into a gap between the rotating blade and the vane to prevent leakage of the products of combustion radially inwardly through that gap.
  • EP 2 474 708 A2 discloses a prior art vane in accordance with the preamble of claim 1.
  • a vane as set forth in claim 1.
  • the pair of holes have distinct shapes.
  • the pair of holes have distinct sizes and cross-sectional areas.
  • At least one of the pair of holes extends at an angle that is non-parallel to a central axis of an engine incorporating the vane.
  • each of the pair of holes extends at an angle that is non-parallel to the center axis of the engine.
  • a second airfoil extends between the radially outer platform and the radially inner platform, and each of the airfoil and the second airfoil include a plurality of injector holes.
  • the holes associated with at least one of the airfoil and the second airfoil have distinct sizes and cross-sectional areas.
  • At least one of the holes associated with at least one of the airfoil and the second airfoil extends at an angle that is non-parallel to a central axis of an engine incorporating the vane.
  • each of the holes associated with at least one of the airfoil and the second airfoil extend at an angle that is non-parallel to the center axis of the engine.
  • FIG. 1 schematically illustrates a gas turbine engine 20.
  • the gas turbine engine 20 is disclosed herein as a two-spool turbofan that generally incorporates a fan section 22, a compressor section 24, a combustor section 26 and a turbine section 28.
  • Alternative engines might include an augmentor section (not shown) among other systems or features.
  • the fan section 22 drives air along a bypass flow path B in a bypass duct defined within a nacelle 15, while the compressor section 24 drives air along a core flow path C for compression and communication into the combustor section 26 then expansion through the turbine section 28.
  • the exemplary engine 20 generally includes a low speed spool 30 and a high speed spool 32 mounted for rotation about an engine central longitudinal axis A relative to an engine static structure 36 via several bearing systems 38. It should be understood that various bearing systems 38 at various locations may alternatively or additionally be provided, and the location of bearing systems 38 may be varied as appropriate to the application.
  • the low speed spool 30 generally includes an inner shaft 40 that interconnects a fan 42, a first (or low) pressure compressor 44 and a first (or low) pressure turbine 46.
  • the inner shaft 40 is connected to the fan 42 through a speed change mechanism, which in exemplary gas turbine engine 20 is illustrated as a geared architecture 48 to drive the fan 42 at a lower speed than the low speed spool 30.
  • the high speed spool 32 includes an outer shaft 50 that interconnects a second (or high) pressure compressor 52 and a second (or high) pressure turbine 54.
  • a combustor 56 is arranged in exemplary gas turbine 20 between the high pressure compressor 52 and the high pressure turbine 54.
  • a mid-turbine frame 57 of the engine static structure 36 is arranged generally between the high pressure turbine 54 and the low pressure turbine 46.
  • the mid-turbine frame 57 further supports bearing systems 38 in the turbine section 28.
  • the inner shaft 40 and the outer shaft 50 are concentric and rotate via bearing systems 38 about the engine central longitudinal axis A which is collinear with their longitudinal axes.
  • the core airflow is compressed by the low pressure compressor 44 then the high pressure compressor 52, mixed and burned with fuel in the combustor 56, then expanded over the high pressure turbine 54 and low pressure turbine 46.
  • the mid-turbine frame 57 includes airfoils 59 which are in the core airflow path C.
  • the turbines 46, 54 rotationally drive the respective low speed spool 30 and high speed spool 32 in response to the expansion.
  • gear system 48 may be located aft of combustor section 26 or even aft of turbine section 28, and fan section 22 may be positioned forward or aft of the location of gear system 48.
  • the engine 20 in one example is a high-bypass geared aircraft engine.
  • the engine 20 bypass ratio is greater than about six (6), with an example embodiment being greater than about ten (10)
  • the geared architecture 48 is an epicyclic gear train, such as a planetary gear system or other gear system, with a gear reduction ratio of greater than about 2.3
  • the low pressure turbine 46 has a pressure ratio that is greater than about five.
  • the engine 20 bypass ratio is greater than about ten (10:1)
  • the fan diameter is significantly larger than that of the low pressure compressor 44
  • the low pressure turbine 46 has a pressure ratio that is greater than about five 5:1.
  • Low pressure turbine 46 pressure ratio is pressure measured prior to inlet of low pressure turbine 46 as related to the pressure at the outlet of the low pressure turbine 46 prior to an exhaust nozzle.
  • the geared architecture 48 may be an epicycle gear train, such as a planetary gear system or other gear system, with a gear reduction ratio of greater than about 2.3:1. It should be understood, however, that the above parameters are only exemplary of one embodiment of a geared architecture engine and that the present invention is applicable to other gas turbine engines including direct drive turbofans.
  • the fan section 22 of the engine 20 is designed for a particular flight condition -- typically cruise at about 0.8 Mach and about 35,000 feet (10,668 m).
  • the flight condition of 0.8 Mach and 35,000 ft (10,668 m), with the engine at its best fuel consumption - also known as "bucket cruise Thrust Specific Fuel Consumption ('TSFC')" - is the industry standard parameter of lbm of fuel being burned divided by lbf of thrust the engine produces at that minimum point.
  • "Low fan pressure ratio” is the pressure ratio across the fan blade alone, without a Fan Exit Guide Vane (“FEGV”) system.
  • the low fan pressure ratio as disclosed herein according to one non-limiting embodiment is less than about 1.45.
  • the "Low corrected fan tip speed" as disclosed herein according to one non-limiting embodiment is less than about 1150 ft / second (350.5 m/s).
  • FIG. 2 shows a detail of a turbine section.
  • Rotating turbine blade stages 90 and 92 are separated by an intermediate vane stage 94.
  • the vane stage 94 is static, and includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced vanes 94.
  • the vane 94 has an airfoil 95 extending from an outer platform 96 to an inner platform 98. Cooling air is supplied to an outer chamber 100, and passes through a passage 102 in the airfoil 95, which is shown schematically, and into a radially an inner chamber 107 which is intermediate radially inwardly extending mount legs 104 and 106, which extend radially inwardly from the inner platform 98
  • a hole 108 is formed in one leg 104, and delivers air from the chamber 107 into a chamber 105 between the vane 94 and the turbine rotor stage 90. Air from the chamber 105 passes across a gap 111 between the rotor blade 90 and the platform 98 of the vane 94.
  • FIG 3 shows a vane according to an arrangement falling outside of the scope of the present invention.
  • the illustrated vane is a "duplex" vane, which includes two airfoils 122 extending from the outer platform 124 to the inner platform 125.
  • the vane 94 as shown in Figure 2 may in fact comprise a plurality of such duplex vane segments 120. Ends 199 define circumferential ends for the duplex vane segment 120.
  • Air passes through the airfoils of the vanes 122 into the chamber 107 as in the Figure 2 embodiment.
  • the leg 121 is provided with an injector hole 108, which allows air from the chamber 107 to flow into the chamber 105 (see Figure 2 ).
  • Each airfoil 122 has a single hole 108.
  • the single large injector hole 108 for each airfoil 122 creates a relatively high momentum to the air leaving the hole 108 and entering the chamber 105.
  • FIG 4 shows an duplex vane 150, according to an embodiment. While duplex vane 150 is shown with two airfoils 152 and 154, this various embodiments would extend to vanes formed as a continuous circumferential ring, single vanes, or any other arrangement of vanes.
  • An outer platform 151 communicates air into the airfoils 152 and 154, and through passages such as shown in Figure 2 into a chamber 162 between legs 156 and 158, which extend radially inwardly from an inner platform 160.
  • a hole 164A is spaced radially outwardly of a hole 164B.
  • the holes can extend for a smaller cross-sectional area, and for a smaller circumferential width than the single holes 108.
  • the air leaving the hole will have a lower momentum than would be the case with the Figure 3 vane. This produces a stream of air that is quickly smeared by air swirling with the rotating rotor blade 90 and in the chamber 105.
  • the chamber 105 is uniformly cooled.
  • Figure 5A depicts an embodiment 170 wherein two airfoils 172 extend between a platform 174 and a platform 180.
  • a chamber 182 is formed between legs 176 and 178.
  • a housing element such as housing element 190 in Figure 2 may be utilized with the Figures 4 and 5A embodiments.
  • a radially outer hole 184 and a radially inner hole 186 are shown in the leg 178. As shown, the holes are of different cross-sectional sizes, and of different shapes.
  • Figure 5B depicts another element of the airfoils according to an additional embodiment.
  • the leg 178 has an axially inner face 190 and an axially outer face 192.
  • Each hole 184 and 186 extends from the inner face 190 to the outer face 192.
  • the hole 184 is shown to be extending at a non-parallel angle (such as defined by the center axis A of the engine and as shown in Figure 1 ).
  • the hole 186 is illustrated as extending at an angle that is radially outward and non-parallel to the center axis A.
  • the 164A and 164B are circumferentially aligned, as are holes 184 and 186.
  • Figure 6 shows an embodiment 200 wherein the duplex airfoils 202 and 204 have one airfoil 204 provided with a pair of holes 208A and 208B, while the airfoil 202 is provided with a single hole 206. In certain applications, it may be that one airfoil may benefit more from the plural holes than one another.
  • Figure 7 shows another embodiment 250 wherein an airfoil 252 is provided with a first number of holes 256 (here three), and a second airfoil 254 is provided with a distinct number (here four). Again, a particular location for the particular airfoils may dictate a distinct number of holes should be utilized.
